Quotes by George Gurdjieff

• Without struggle, no progress and no result. Every breaking of habit produces a change in the machine.
• Laughter relieves us of superfluous energy, which, if it remained unused, might become negative, that is, poison. Laughter is the antidote.
• A man is never the same for long. He is continually changing. He seldom remains the same even for half an hour.
• A man can only attain knowledge with the help of those who possess it. This must be understood from the very beginning. One must learn from him who knows.
